Job Description

As a Structural Design Engineer, you will work with multidisciplinary teams including Product Design, Industrial Design, Hardware Engineering, Reliability and Operations to drive product development from concept to production to ensure product structural integrity. You will own and drive analysis of designs, enabling early optimization prior to prototyping, root cause, and failure analysis of mechanical problems. You will generate FEA (Finite Element Analysis)/analytical models of mechanical parts, modules, and assemblies, use static, dynamic, structural and thermal-mechanical analysis, and create and develop methods to predict field failure models. You will also build simulation models by using verification, calibration, and validation techniques and best practices leading to high-quality results. You will drive the exploration, validation, and integration of new technologies, materials, analysis methods, and tools to advance and expand team capabilities. You will collaborate with cross-functional teams to identify risk, create analysis/simulation/validation plan, and propose solutions to problems based on analysis data, and iterate through the entire product development cycle to optimize the design to achieve product performance objectives.

Must have:

Bachelor's degree in Mechanical Engineering, Product Design, or related field
5 years of experience in mechanical properties of materials
5 years of experience with structural simulation software
FEA tools (e.g., Abaqus, Ansys, etc.)
Experience with manufacturing processes
Design for Manufacturability (DFM) and Design for Assembly (DFA)

Good to have:

Master’s degree or PhD in Mechanical engineering
5 years of experience with structural simulation in consumer electronics
Experience with designing, building, and testing prototypes
Experience with advanced material characterization and modeling

Minimum qualifications:

Bachelor's degree in Mechanical Engineering, Product Design, a related field, or equivalent practical experience.
5 years of experience in mechanical properties of materials including glass, ceramics, metals, plastics, polymers, adhesives.
5 years of experience with structural simulation software and numerical methods, modeling practices, and FEA tools (e.g., Abaqus, Ansys, etc.).

Preferred qualifications:

Master’s degree or PhD in Mechanical engineering or a related discipline.
5 years of experience with structural simulation in the consumer electronics industry.
Experience with manufacturing processes such as injection molding, sheet metal forming and die casting, Design for Manufacturability (DFM) and Design for Assembly (DFA).
Experience with designing, building, and testing prototypes to validate design concepts and analysis results.
Experience with advanced material characterization and modeling for developing numerical models, and the development of validation tools.

About the job

Our computational challenges are so big and unique we can't just buy our hardware, we've got to make it ourselves. Our Platforms Team designs and builds the hardware, software and networking technologies that power all of Google's services. As a Mechanical Engineer you design and evaluate our data center systems, identifying product requirements and contributing to research and project planning. From the chip to chiller, you are responsible for designing and optimizing an architecture that will scale with Google's continued growth.

With your technical expertise, you lead and manage projects, develop product and process improvements, provide consultation to others and help facilitate training and development.

The Google Tablet, Tracker, and Home (TTH) structural team is part of the Google TTH Predictive Engineering and Methods team. The team helps design and develop quality Google hardware products through predictable simulation and validation.

As a Structural Design Engineer, you will work with multidisciplinary teams including Product Design, Industrial Design, Hardware Engineering, Reliability and Operations to drive product development from concept to production to ensure product structural integrity.

Google's mission is to organize the world's information and make it universally accessible and useful. Our Devices & Services team combines the best of Google AI, Software, and Hardware to create radically helpful experiences for users. We research, design, and develop new technologies and hardware to make our user's interaction with computing faster, seamless, and more powerful. Whether finding new ways to capture and sense the world around us, advancing form factors, or improving interaction methods, the Devices & Services team is making people's lives better through technology.
